Combined Test Force (CTF)

Abstract

The F-22 Combined Test Force (CTF), located at Edwards Air Force Base, conducts full-up weapons system testing to assess the synergistic effect of the F-22 combined characteristics of stealth, speed, maneuverability, and integrated avionics in mission accomplishment. The CTF uses operationally significant ground and flight test scenarios, when practical, to identify system performance deficiencies early before they are more difficult and costly to resolve. Starting in FY13, CTF efforts directly associated with Increment 3.2B development are located in the 3.2B program documentation, Program Element 0605213F.
